Hello. I've got a problem with booting. I tried to install a new FW, but got an error after that I couldn't boot it at all. I've tried to reinstall recovery, using odin and it can see my phone, but the screen is black and when I want to install ANYTHING, it stucks at "Setup connection"..
I've tried to change the ports, extract/insert the battery, reboot my pc, remove my SD and Sim, turn off the Kies, but nothing helped.
What to do? Does anybody know?
Please, help me. I have broke my head

But I can't.. When I try to boot with download mode, then odin can see the port(yellow), but the screen is black and odin stucks at "Setup connection"... and no matter what I'm trying to install.. I just don't want to take it to SC, cause it costs a lot, that's why I'm here.
Any ideas?

try to remove battery for a while then plug it in again and then enter the phone into download mode, connect it to usb and run Odin (see results if Odin has recognized your device)
*Remove the battery.
*Connect the phone via USB cable to pc(without battery).
*Press & hold Volume Down+Home+Power buttons(without battery).
*& while keep holding these 3 keys, insert the battery.
Now try updating via Odin.
If still fails then u can't do anything else.

Had serendipity vii, tried to install a theme. It bricked the phone.
used odin 3. restored the phone to factory.
tried rooting again and tried to put serendipity back on
didn't work
tried a bunch of different ways
then on my last attempt used odin to try and load serendipity vii. it stoped at "get PTI for Mapping...Firmware update start...Removed!...Completed. All threads completed (succedd 1/ failed 0)
now the thing won't even start in download mode or samsung screen.
the only thing I can think of is the battery died. but its been plugged in for a while now and still the thing is dead.
any ideas out there for the n00b?
Im beyond my limited capacity...
thanks
First make sure your using the factory Samsung cable. Your battery may have died but you should be able to get into download mode without the battery. Start Odin >plug cable into computer > volume down > plug in cable.
Too late now but, I don't believe you can use Odin to install Serendipity, thats probably what bricked your phone.
I think the PIT is screwed up - gtg's ultimate unbrick does include a fixed PIT.
The following has never failed to enter download mode for me:
Pull battery and reinsert
DO NOT power up
Hold VolUp + VolDn while inserting the USB cable into the phone
Note that if things are really screwed up, download mode shows a different screen - a "phone-to-PC" instead of the usual "android construction worker" screen.
and even while it shows that screen u can still restore, try the GTG unbrick method , it should work.

Hey, i am new here i used to get helps lot in this forum but now i am facing a problem that i didn't found a solution for it yet..

I don't know if your phone is the same, but with my Nexus if stuck in bootloop I can plug the usb cable in and use adb to enter command "adb reboot bootloader" and get to fastboot and flash the stock images. Maybe you can try something like that. That's why I love the nexus I thought I bricked it a couple times but I always got back to stock images. or if you have a cwm restore you can get to that once in fastboot.
Thanks for your reply! but where i can find stock images?? and can i make it without formatting everything on it? plus when i did that i wasn't have the sd card inside it and without a sim card also
i found on the web that i need to install default kernel.. i did that and put it to bootloader in Odin and the operation succeed but now i am facing looping on Samsung logo with yellow triangle ... see the picture.. it always loop can't do anything tried recovery mode download mode but nothing.. is there any fast solution please? i beg you guys please
Try to wipe everything trough recovery, and flash another rom.
Just google for Heimdall recovery
Does Heimdall perform anything different than Odin?
try to install leaked original rom ics for gs2. i try it and yellow triangle is out
Hi,
I rooted my brandnew GT-P3110 with cf, flashed pacman and cwm recovery. I do not blame anybody alse for my issues but myself. I guess I messed up the restoring of NON-system-apps:
After a day of troublefree use the tablet randomly rebooted and came back with the message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.". No booting into recovery possible, no booting into download mode, no regular boot. Just the same message over and over again. Battery is unremovable.
I installed Kies, updated it, it downloaded drivers but under "emergency recovery" my tablet didn't appear. I then followed the "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" procedure wich downloaded the necessary files but aborted with a korean text shown in the attachment after replugging the tablet. I tried this with 2 different USB-cables on several USB-ports. Kies btw asked me to remove the battery (not possible) after entering device number and serial-number. I turned off by pressing the off button instead and it turned on again.
I uninstalled Kies, rebooted, installed the samsung drivers manually, rebooted. I installed odin 1.85 (and later 1.3) and downloaded my contry's stock firmware (and later a newer version of the same firmware and another country's stock) from sammobile. I tried to flash them first without "repartition" ticked, later with it ticked but without a pit file (i can't find it!). I got four different errors, two are attached, the third was somethign like "cant write (line 1876)" and "cant write (line 1440)".I tried three stock firmwares with two version of odin with two USB cords on everal ports on ONE computer. I remove the tablet every time, exited odin every time, run it as admin, disabled firewall, xp-antispy and antivirus. I'm on Windows 7.
Besides a million other threads I found this one, but I wasn't able to solve my issue with it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398
For 48 hours i tried to solve this problem by myself. Now I hope to find out if there's a point in continuing or if I can give up and throw away the piece of samsung.
Cheers,

I am having the same problem with a P5113. Started with stuck at the Samsung logo. Then I tried a flash from Odin that didn't work. That led to the "Firmware error" screen telling me to use Keis. Keis fails to find the tablet. Odin still sees it but doesn't get a good write.
Now all I get is the battery icon when plugged in but that's it.
Things I have tried:
1) Two versions of Odin
2) Different USB ports
3) Different PC
I also let the device sit over the weekend to completely discharge. Still nothing.
Did you (or anyone else) resolve this issue?

Dude had the same issue on my galaxy S2 and resolved it. I downloaded the
The .pit file for my gt-i9100g (http://data.hu/get/4697903/omap4_all_20110627_emmc.pit)
The stock ROM from sammobile. (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/)
The JB Bootloader
The stock JB kernel.
Opened odin v1.85.
Then i used the vol down+home+lock keys together to try to open the download mode ( but ended up in the "Firmware error " page) and connected phone to the pc. It shows "Added!" in the message box.
Repartition with the .pit and it will reboot.
Disconnect
Get into download mode and install the bootloader and it should reboot when done. Disconnect.
Get into download mode and connect
Installed the kernel through odin and reboot
Download mode again and install the ROM through odin.
If the phone gets stuck in boot loop (samsung logo over and over),
get into recovery mode ( for s2, vol up+home+lock, it needs to be pressed intermittently)
Then do a full format along with wipe cache.
And then the phone finally booted completely. :laugh: . Good Luck.
Note: I'm not sure to boot into recovery and download are the same key combos as it was for the i9100g.

Thanks. Well, I understand the theory. I have had trouble finding a PIT file that I am sure is for my device. I did save a PIT file but I think it is corrupt because using it requires me to let the battery die afterwards to get back to download mode. Same for the bootloader. I have a few things I've tried, but not sure I have one that is exactly for the GT-P5113 (in fact, I never did find a JB for the 5113 just the 5110 and it never would load).
Well no amount of coaxing has put life back into the tab
I may try again out of curiosity, but rather than invest more time I went out and bought a 32G Nexus 7 (2013 version). I would still like to get the Galaxy Tab alive again -- it has corrupted the flash twice before and each time I was able to bring it back to life. Not sure if this is an actual hardware failure or if it is just beyond partitioning.
I have a feeling if I had the right PIT and the right bootloader I could get back in business.
I can do each thing you mentioned, but my device is not getting detected by my PC. When I insert USB it says USB not recognized and it is not detected by Odin, adb and anything else. I am stuck on Boot Logo for my P3100 and when I go into recovery, it says USB not recognized. Fully messed up. Can you help me out here.

No. I finally sent it to one of these ebay guys who will JTAG it since I was too lazy to wire up one of my JTAG probes. They worked on it and said it was simply dead and the only alternative would be to replace the flash chips.
Bought a Nexus 7.
I've got the pit files for P311x and P3100 on my website https://sites.google.com/site/jrc2swebsite/downloads/samsung-galaxy-tab-2-70-p31xx
Please guys, my galaxy S2 SHW-M20K (Korean) is in trouble.
I bought it from a 2nd hand shop , and it was runing Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean (rooted stock rom). I had no problem with it till today when I tried to install "CWM Recovery", After searching the web i found a post with two files that supposedly could do the task. These files are:
1. CWM_KT_M250K.tar
2. Tegrak-Kernel-Build-39-for-SHW-M250K-UE18.tar
Using Odin, I triedd the first file but it couldn't work, and the phone could not boot so i downloaded the "rooted factory firmware" and flashed the phone. Everything was ok. Later I tried the second file. Again the phone could not boot and stuck at the logo with a yellow triangle. After waiting for about 5 minutes I tried to shut it down by pressing the power button it did'nt respond. (Now this is a point that I regret), I removed the battery as a way of forcing to turn it off.
Now my phone cannot boot. It doesn't respond to power button, neither does it allow me to enter recovery mode nor download mode. But When i connect to the charger or pc, it start charging and keeps cutting off the charging frequently. But it only allows me to enter download mode when connected to pc. When I tried to flash the "rooted factory firmware", again, the flashing goes smoothly but when the phone starts rebooting it fails as if there is a power cut. Is my battery damaged? Can someone give me a guide on how to fix it?
I need your help gus, I am not an expert in the rootings and roms,
Pardon My English. It's a foreign language to me.

As u mentioned, I think that your phone has gone to a Soft Brick. I don't know much about the Korean build, so Google it to solve the Soft Brick. Try flashing the stock rom via odin but I don't recommend it since it may cause your phone to be hard bricked if not done properly.
So go to the service centre, you'll get more help there

I thank you sir for responding to this. From what you have said, I think the best decision is to take it to Samsung service center. (For I have tried to google it but I couldn't get a solution). I would also like to know if it is repairable, and about the cost, is it worth repairing or should I think of buying a new phone?
I am stranded.

So one day I decided to flash custom ROM onto my Samsung galaxy Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110) and I used Odin and was new to the whole Rom flashing thing, and so It messed up during flashing and I was stupid and unplugged my tablet and now it is stuck in the download mode saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please use KIES and try again" something along those lines, and I tried looking it up and tried to fix it, like holding down power button and hard rebooting, didn't work, which now, every time I plug it into my pc to try a flash factory ROM and it keeps turning on and off on the error screen. So can someone help? I cant take it apart because I am using a screwdriver and it is damaging it, to try and take out battery and put it back in, and I'm not buying one of those plastic tools, I want to but, its just for another reason why I can't, So can anyone help? Thanks!

where can I find an bfs? and what does it stand for?
EDIT: I think I found one, but ill have to wait till I get home from school to do it
So I downloaded it and it was in .tar format. do I need to convert it? because in ap it doenst show up, it shows file formats and .tar is not one of them.
EDIT: never mind used WinZip, and added it, but like I said, every time I plug my tablet into my pc, it turns on, shows the download mode error screen and turn off, then turns right back on, with same screen, and so on and so on. so I really cant do anything till that is fixed...any suggestions?

Ok just fixed the turning on and off thing, I had best idea, hold power button and plug in cord, then let go of power button and it should stay on now
EDIT: just plugged into my pc and its doing it again, it worked with charging cable, but I guess since I unplugged it, it stopped working, ill see when I get home from school and try again
Also turns out the screen only flashes on and off, when it is connected to my pc, when it is to the wall, its fine, so I need to figure that out
Ok it works with my tablet plugged into the "charging only" port basicly, but it does both charge and can send data. But every time I try to flash i on Odin, It always fails, so idk what to do

ok good
But it made it a different language upon setup but I can change to English, but it installs like 4 applications every time I reset it and boot it up, I can uninstall them, but its annoying, and the app called calendar or is supposed to be, is called s planer, I don't like it so I'm trying to find a stock ROM for it so it is back to normal.
